ATTACHMENT ID: 12699152 - PreCommit-HIVE-TRUNK-Build > Hive AvroSerDe does not support circular references in Schema > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7653 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7653 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.13.1 > Reporter: Sachin Goyal > Assignee: Sachin Goyal > Attachments: HIVE-7653.1.patch, HIVE-7653.2.patch, HIVE-7653.3.patch, > HIVE-7653.4.patch, HIVE-7653.5.patch, HIVE-7653.6.patch, HIVE-7653.6.patch > > > Avro allows nullable circular references but Hive AvroSerDe does not. > Example of circular references (passing in Avro but failing in AvroSerDe): > {code} > class AvroCycleParent { > AvroCycleChild child; > public AvroCycleChild getChild () {return child;} > public void setChild (AvroCycleChild child) {this.child = child;} > } > class AvroCycleChild { > AvroCycleParent parent; > public AvroCycleParent getParent () {return parent;} > public void setParent (AvroCycleParent parent) {this.parent = parent;} > } > {code} > Due to this discrepancy, Hive is unable to read Avro records having > circular-references. For some third-party code with such references, it > becomes very hard to directly serialize it with Avro and use in Hive. > I have a patch for this with a unit-test and I will submit it shortly. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
